hi
Testing on OS26 Public Beta 6.
In Safari, if you enter x homepage and scroll, the tab bar sticks to the bottom and moves.
Make the keyboard appear in the search window
When scrolling down on the Safari homepage again, the issue of not being able to stick to the bottom appears.
Is it because the liquid glass UI was applied this time? and safari bug?
Please let me know if I'm missing anything
Hi there,
I’m experiencing exactly the same issue on iOS 26 Public Beta—even when my web app is installed in standalone mode (via “Add to Home Screen”), the viewport seems to miscalculate the bottom area, as if Safari’s UI (e.g., the URL bar or toolbar) is still present, although it’s hidden. When the keyboard opens and then closes, there's often a blank, scrollable gap at the bottom, and fixed elements don’t reposition correctly.
I’m not sure if it’s related to the “liquid glass” UI introduced in this beta, a Safari bug, or some internal change in viewport handling in iOS 26.
To help clarify the behavior, I’m going to add some screenshots showing the gap / toolbar phantom space.
The same thing is happening on developer apple.
This even happens on this very website of the release of iOS 26
After trying various methods, try setting the scrolling container to a child element within the body instead of the default documentElement to bypass this issue.

Safari 26.1 Beta Fixed a bottom gap appearing on layouts with viewport-sized fixed containers on iOS. (158055568)
OS26.1 Developer Beta it's good working. Thank you
